Numbers/Statistics/Normalization

* PERSONNEL:

- 34% of Army personnel deployed to CENTCOM

- 35% of Army's fatalities

* AVIATION (UH-60 OIF: Source PEO-AVN as of 15 Jan 04):

- 21% (333 aircraft ) of the total Army fleet (1571 aircraft)

- 2 times the peacetime OPTEMPO (hours flown/acft
available)

- 6 (50%) of Army’s Class A accidents from 1 Oct 02 - 15 Jan
04: if at the same rate as the rest of the army, expect only
3 accidents over the same period.

* VEHICLES (OIF):

- 12% of Army's Wheeled vehicles

- 7.5 times the peacetime OPTEMPO

- 42 (85%) of Army AMV Accidents - if at the same rate as
the rest of the army, expect about 53 accidents.

* Conclusion: The numbers and rates in OIF are
higher than the rest of the Army, but we could
expect more ground accidents and fatalities.
